The orcs are pulling actual museum pieces out of storage for this war.
Amazing orc propagandists here will maintain they are winning.
Nonsense.
The orcs have been attacking Bakhmut with human wave meat attacks on a daily basis for 7 months. They have barely gained a few kms of ground in all that time, so much so they have run out of convicts to attack with.
I think we can safely safe one side is suffering far greater attrition, and it's not the boys in yellow and blue.
There certainly are disagreements between Kyiv and Washington.
On the need to break the Red Army in to pieces and kill lots of reds, not much disagreement.
Look at the absolute state of this clown show.
I am not sure which one looks more fcuked.
A number of Ukrainian tank crews have concluded their training on German-made Leopard 2A4 main battle tanks in Spain, Reuters reported on March 13.
According to the report, a total of 40 tank crew members and 15 mechanical specialists have mastered operating and maintaining Leopard-2s, having spent four weeks at a military base in Zaragoza.
Training of Ukrainians who arrived in Germany to undergo operational training on the Leopard 2 battle tank is nearing completion, - Handelsblatt
Progress; the offensive can't come soon enough to stop what''s happening in Bakhmut, where the Ukrainians are paying in gold, to clean up sh1t.
Interesting.
Not going to watch the video you posted a link to as I think you have consistently made posts to this thread from a pro muskovy point of view. I've no doubt that muskovy forces are still killing Ukrainians but the losses they are taking are huge. Its not just the human cost but they are chewing up their offensive equipment to the point that they are now bringing in armoured vehicles that first came into use in the 1950's while supplies of newer western equipment are starting to arrive to help the Ukrainians to liberate their country from the invaders.

I get the feeling he could promote the idea of Chinese peace keepers and a demilitarized zone that moves the Ukrainans away from the black sea , which would give the Chinese access to agricultural lands (grains) and black sea ports
They survive it because they have already arrived at the point where they believe they are dead anyway, nothing to lose. Like in this case, he was aware of his surroundings, and fully functional, but completely unconcerned about the whole thing.
@Pa ElGrande Jump to 2 minutes 20 seconds in. If you want to get a view of the situation in Bakhmut from a Ukrainian soldiiers perspective. Its a mess. It's clear the Ukranians are very low on ammunition, they have been struggling with this the entire war. Once the Russians get their artillery in place the Ukrainians either retreat or get torn to pieces.
Russia has had their artillery in place hitting bakhmut nightly and in some cases 24/7 for 7 months at least and yet Bakhmut still holds.
What are the Russians waiting for ?
Xi doesn't travel internationally as a rule, so he needs something. I think Xi will propose a peace deal where Ukraine basically surrenders (gives up territories, no NATO or EU membership). Needless to say Zelensky will reject it. Then Xi would say that he tried to negotiate, but the West doesn't want peace. The result is that Xi being will be shown domestically as a peace negotiator who is not afraid of the West. The charade will unlikely to have any effect on the war.

Bakhmut: Ukrainian losses may limit capacity for counter-attack
Kyiv appears to be using the tactics it deployed in Luhansk, when withdrawal was followed by a lightning counter-offensive
<snip>
Mr Zelenskiy this week justified his stance by claiming Russia was suffering much heavier casualties than Ukraine in its attempt to capture what his army calls “Fortress Bakhmut”.
“We are destroying the occupier everywhere – wherever it yields results for Ukraine ... Bakhmut has yielded and is yielding one of the greatest results during this war,” he said.
They are taking heavy casualties and there are doubts expressed as to whether they have the force necessary to capitalise on Russians weakness.
(Medical Department, U.S. Army) Wound Ballistics – Causative Agents of Battle Casualties in WWII
From these they drew the following conclusions:
1. Small arms fire accounted for between 14 and 31 percent of the total casualties, depending upon the theater of action: The Mediterranean theater, 14.0 percent; the European theater, 23.4 percent; and the Pacific theaters, 30.7 percent.
2. Artillery and mortar fire together accounted for 65 percent of the total casualties in the European and Mediterranean theaters, 64.0 and 69.1, respectively. In the Pacific, they accounted for 47.0 percent.
This is a war of attrition. Who blinks first?
Seems the worse part for people fighting especially the Ukrainans is the Russian artillery, when it's being used against positions it's near 24/7 attacks ,but it doesn't seem to be accurate indirect fire, just constant area attacks,seems they are spending more time trying to demoralise the Ukrainans rather than fighting then head on ,
You can only imagine how many are currently suffering with PTSD under constant shelling
Well here's the real table grabbing parkinsons Putin. Listening to puffed out Kadyrov.
Wouldn't blame him. PoV footage of this type of fighting is terrifying to watch. Being there would literally be like being in a nightmare that you couldn't wake up from. If you're in that situation, I suppose you have to be thinking that you're about to die at any second because it pretty much only takes one stray bullet and they're flying all around and Russians are basically running at your position on top of that. It's a wonder how anyone survives this type of warfare.
...
I'm wondering what role China is now going to play. Xi's doing a fair bit of speaking about how China must move to defend itself and all that stuff, and there is the news of a summit due to take place between Putin and Xi in Moscow. Does Xi break with public rhetoric in that meeting and tell Putin to pack it in, or does he resolve to throw some serious weight behind the Russian war effort?
Yes that video short and long version was posted maybe 2 weeks ago and also supposedly a follow up with the guy firing, the guy reloading supposedly was/is suffering from shellshock.
Was this video posted? It has been floating around a few days. Shows the actual chaos of being on the frontline. (Be warned though, it also shows someone getting shot at relatively close quarters)
It's easy for us to sit here and post about things but those poor people are trying to survive through it. Literally fighting for their lives and being within an inch of death.
The more mass the better
!!!
no, free of charge, but only stops at Bakhmut
Ford is already a step ahead:
No mention of what kind of brake's it has.....are they an add on extra, I wonder????
Published author and military experts all these accounts say the same thing, first post was 12 may last year,
But then again we see similar experts or Walt's popping up on various platforms over the last year ,
Thats what a i thought,and they always forget about Ukraine having the last say in this,regardless of what other means
And everyone knows Ukraine have the last word,end of story
Next
We should only believe "balanced experts", like this one who said Russia will win the war by the end of the summer... 2022.
"We're very lucky they're so ***** stupid"
Hopefully, they will never learn to use new technologies. You can ask ChatGPT to write a convincing post, but no, they push the same old tripe.
